Genes affected
NF1 (HGNC:7765): (neurofibromin 1) This gene product appears to function as a negative regulator of the ras signal transduction pathway. Mutations in this gene have been linked to neurofibromatosis type 1, juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia and Watson syndrome. The mRNA for this gene is subject to RNA editing (CGA>UGA->Arg1306Term) resulting in premature translation termination. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have also been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The NF1 c.2002-4_2002-3del intronic change results in a deletion of two nucleotides at the -4 and -3 position of intron 17 of the NF1 gene. Algorithms that predict the impact of sequence changes on splicing indicate that this variant likely does not affect splicing. This variant has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.0009% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant has not been reported in individuals with neurofibromatosis type 1. In summary, the evidence currently available is insufficient to determine the clinical significance of this variant. It has therefore been classified as of uncertain significance. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

DNA sequence analysis of the NF1 gene demonstrated a two-nucleotide deletion in intron 17, c.2002-4_2002-3del. This change does not appear to have been previously described in individuals with NF1-related disorders, however, a sequence change at a similar position (c.2002-3C>G) has been described in one family with spinal neurofibromatosis (PMID: 23812910). The c.2002-4_2002-3del sequence change has been described in one non-Finnish European the gnomAD population database (dbSNP rs1363607538). This sequence change is not clearly predicted to have a deleterious effect on splicing based on in silico splice prediction programs. It is possible that this sequence change represents a benign sequence change in the NF1 gene that has not been identified to date. The functional significance of this sequence change is not known at present and its contribution to this patient's disease phenotype cannot definitively be determined. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; In-silico analysis, which includes splice predictors and evolutionary conservation, is inconclusive as to whether the variant alters gene splicing. In the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown. -

<p style="text-align:justify">The c.2002-4_2002-3delTC intronic variant is located three nucleotides before coding exon 18 of the NF1 gene. This variant results from a deletion of twonucleotides at positionsc.2002-3 andc.2002-4.Based on data from the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project(ESP), thisallele has an overall frequency of approximately 0.01% (1/12518) total alleles studied and 0.01% (1/8254) EuropeanAmerican alleles.Allele frequency datafor this varaint are not currently available from the 1000 Genomes Project and the alteration is not currently listed in the Database of Single NucleotidePolymorphisms (dbSNP). To date, this alteration has been detected with an allele frequency of approximately 0.003% (>30000 alleles tested) in our clinical cohort.Thesenucleotide positions arenot well conserved in available vertebrate species. Using the BDGP and ESEfinder splice site prediction tools, this alteration is predicted to weaken the efficiency of the nativesplice acceptor site; however, direct evidence is unavailable. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of c.2002-4_2002-3delTC remains unclear. -

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
